Cookie Policy

We believe in transparency. Learn how our game jam platform uses data to keep your sessions secure and your developer experience seamless.

01. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you browse our platform. They act as a memory core for your browser, allowing our servers to recognize you when you return to participate in a new jam, vote on competition entries, or engage with the community.

These files contain no executable code and cannot scan your local machine or access your game project files. They simply maintain the state of your current session.

02. How We Use Them

Our primary use of cookies revolves strictly around the functionality of the developer platform and game competitions. We categorize them as follows:

  • Essential Core: Required to keep you logged in while you submit your latest build or browse team-building resources.
  • Community Preferences: Remembers your display settings, timezone, and layout choices so your dashboard loads exactly how you left it.
  • Performance Metrics: Anonymous telemetry that helps us understand which resources are accessed most often, allowing us to optimize server loads during peak submission hours.

03. Retention & Choices

Session cookies are purged automatically the moment you close your browser. Persistent data, such as layout preferences, remain stored until manually cleared. You retain absolute control over your environment.

You can configure your browser to reject all non-essential cookies. Please note that blocking essential session tokens will prevent you from authenticating, submitting game builds, or accessing restricted developer sections.

04. Privacy Context & Contact

For broader details on how we handle personal developer data during competitions, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

If you have questions regarding telemetry, session tracking, or privacy concerns, you can reach out to our core team directly:
